Robust and non-brittle (instrument can be moved without element damage)
Cartridge type for easy replacement
Can be changed individually, without interruption
Advanced furnace
Dynamic Temperature Profile (DTP) to ensure uniform temperature (patent pending)
Individual element automatic power compensation (patent pending)
Fast heat-up (<15 minutes)
Strict use of ceramic eliminates metal contamination
Other
Industrial PLC interface (does not depend on Windows updates)
Requires no external supplies (no power supply box, no cooling fluids)
Single-phase power (no need for 3-phase)
Tiltable interface screen for various user heights
Ambient status light (red when processing, blue when completed)
Reliability
Built with the most demanding lab in mind
Heating elements impervious to flux and chemical projections
Robust, all-ceramic platinumware holders
Industrial-grade motors and electronics
High-throughput
Simultaneous processing of up to six (6) samples
Can prepare glass disks (beads) for XRF, or solutions for ICP, including preparations in peroxide or pyrosulfate
Throughput of up to 30 samples/hour
Fast initial heat-up time of under 15 minutes
Productivity is improved by a user-adjustable holding temperature. Therefore, the temperature between fusions can be maintained to minimize initial ramping time
Safety
No gases used, so no post-combustion toxic products released
Minimal heat dissipation; only a standard vent hood is required
Integrated, auto-locking protection shield with safety glass viewport
Accuracy
Extra-precise temperature control achieved by Dynamic Temperature Profiling (DTP) and automatic individual element power compensation (patents pending).
Entirely automated, cold-to-cold
Fully reproducible fusion methods
Outstanding reproducibility: all crucibles and molds are at the same temperature
Real-time temperature display
Optimum pouring conditions, since the molds are in the furnace with the crucibles
Versatility
Makes glass disks for XRF
Can also make solutions (including peroxide or pyrosulfate fusions without modification)
Optional variable-speed embedded solutions stirrer available
Prepares up to six (6) solutions for ICP or AA
Switching from disk to solution mode is quick and easy
Ready to fuse with built-in methods for oxides, minerals, metals, alloys, sulfides, fluorides and more
Can perform solid or liquid oxidations
Fully customizable fusion methods
Simplicity
A highly optimized, intelligent, advanced furnace
